    The problem is that Saban is afraid to travel or play a home and home series against good opposition. He will NEVER schedule potential powerhouses in the PAC 12, like Oregon, UCLA, USC, Washington, or Stanford. Instead he has to schedule home games against the likes of Southern Miss, who has won one game in the past two seasons. How does beating a 1-23 team at home help your SOS Nick? The fact is that Saban is running scared because he cannot keep up with all of the changes in College Football. His team is slow and built to be a slow, ball control team. Speed kills Alabama, as they found out against Auburn. Insstead of trying to change, Saban, and his crying partner Bielema come up with some unfounded B.S. about the NHHU offense being a danger to the athletes. Bye Alabama fans. Your run is over.

    Home and homes. Bitch is afraid to do it. So he has to pay shit schools to deal with his inflated sense of self.

    Same shit happens in college basketball too.

    Difference in auburn and everyone else u mentioned is auburn is playing with SEC level players. Bama would still wipe the floor with auburn 9 out of 10 times.... I wouldn't count on to many FG returns for TDs happening again.

    That is ridiculous. I can just see Nick Saban now - "son, best of luck in your football career but you're too fast for the Crimson Tide. We built our program and won our national championships on slowness. Who knows, maybe Auburn or some other team that likes fast players will have you. Now get out of my office!"

    Alabama knows they don't have to schedule crap ooc at this point. They usually schedule a decent team at a neutral site, then 3 home games against Sun Belt or Cusa teams. They want 7-8 home games... They did schedule a big home and home with Penn State and Duke not long ago.

    BigDaddy may get his wish, there's a rumored USC/Alabama game in 2016

    "Does success come with the price of scheduling difficulties?"

    Yes

    If Alabama would be open to a home and home they'd find someone to play them in about 10 minutes. Someone like UCF would trip over themselves for a home/home with Alabama

    They also backed out of a series with Georgia Tech. But from my end, I'm thanking my lucky stars for that. They wanted a home and home, but one in Tuscaloosa and one at the Georgia Dome. Talk about an insult.

    The problem with those speed teams is, the first time the QB gets hurt, then what do they do? Most teams are only going to have one fast QB. Then it's back to grinding it out.
